Similar issue, they are untrue in their response right from start and anyhow give answer just to close case

Oh mine was much later... I only knew about it on 25 April when I received the email. If the promotion is already fully redeemed why did they send the email out on 25th?

I think the promo is not done in good faith, since by the 2nd day alr fully redeemed. Normally in sales/marketing, the staff will monitor the sales daily/weekly/monthly. So they prob alr know is fully redeemed. Yet they keep sending out sms and email. Its very deceptive. But they came out with excuses that they only validate 2-3 months later.

For credit card promotion of this nature don't think they monitor

Wait for it to become 72 daily$ under posb then redeem it

Just received the POSB Everyday Mastercard the other day. The thing is, I already have an existing card. Must I call them up to cancel even if I do not activate it? I assume they'll be porting the Optimum$ over to this card instead of my current existing card right?

same here...
i also got mine last week, the hotline officer told me it's normal to receive another card... and can only activate the replacement card after 3rd Aug when we receive the sms from POSB

it's better, coz i can now just buy any 3 items and claim the $20 for my principal card and sub card... aiya should have applied more ANZ sub-cards that time!

 

[winguy]

for posb everyday card $20 rebate for 3 transactions, any excluded transactions?

 

[sellphones]

have been using this card for my dining expenses. Any worthy substitute for this card?

What do you do if ANZ doesn't give 5% cashback

I had selected the bonus rewards category at the end of June as soon as I received the reminder message from ANZ. However when the most recent statement got generated, they have not calculated the 5% Optimum$ and instead given only 1% Optimum$.

What do you do in this situation? Anyone with a similar experience? Thank you very much! I am guessing time is of the essence here given the August 4 looming deadline.

What category you chosen, on which date? What you spent on, on which date? When is your statement?

Have you maxed out the 30 optimum$ ($600 spend) per transaction? If not, you will have to call to dispute.

I can't use my anz card sing 5 aug. And I did not receive any new card from dbs. What should I do now? Need to check some transaction record but I can't view it online from dbs or anz website. Any help?

Which ANZ card? You already have the corresponding DBS/POSB card? Eg if you have ANZ optimum card and you already have POSB everyday card, you will not receive a new card. An account should have been created in DBS ibanking to reflect the balance from the ANZ card. No details of past transactions though. DBS has been asking us to save a copy of the past ANZ transaction records, not sure if they can provide the detailed transaction records.

Credible alternative to ANZ Optimum?

Hi,

To holders of the erstwhile ANZ Optimum card who used it for the travel bonus category - specifically airline tickets:

What is the alternative card now which gives a *cashback* reward even in the ballpark of 5%? I am not interested in miles.

I looked at CIMB Platinum MC but it has a cap of S$60 cashback a month - that is simply too little.

Thank you for your suggestions and advice!

for a large sum you may try live fresh, 5% capped at $70, and offer a sizable dbs points which may convert to ~ 0.8 to 1% worth of vouchers

I think BoC family card has $100 limit for rebate
